Title of this thread should be $20 off two $50 gift cards. But not hurting my feelings not letting the cat out of the bag even more.

I wish there were more OfficeMax stores near me. During the Staples promo, I went all over town!

Good deal from standpoint you're paying less than the face value and if you use Ink can get 5x back. Unfortunately the nearest OM from the DC area is about an hour away. I had no idea there were none in this area!

Wouldn't it look strange if I have 10 $90.10 transactions on my Chase Ink card? I don't want to raise a red flag.

This is my big concern about this deal. That, and the fact that the nearest OM is a little out of the way.

Is this a national promnotion, or a regional one? I don't see this deal on the printed ad shown on the Office Max website.......

Use ink for added bonus!

Thank you for posting.

Also, thank you. What does AP mean. Taking advantage of this offer is the net savings of $10 for each $100 purchased, correct?

I plan on using several different credit cards, so I do not have many similar charges on one card.

AP-Amazon payments

Awesome, thank you for posting that. That makes me feel much better. I just bought 6 of them, no problems. They said they are putting more on the shelves later, I closed them out. I want to buy up to 20 cards.
Buying more than 20 seems a little insane. Haha.
